A Gal beta 1 to 4GlcNAc alpha 2 to 6 sialyltransferse and a Gal beta 1 to 3(4)GlcNAc alpha 2 to 3 sialyltransferase have been purified 23,000- and 860,000-fold to homogeneity from Triton CF-54 extracts of rat liver membranes. The two enzymes were concentrated by affinity chromatography on CDP-hexanolamine-agarose and resolved by NaCl gradient elution from the same adsorbent. Final purification of the Gal beta 1 to 4GlcNAc alpha 2 to 6 sialytransferase, the most abundant enzyme, was achieved by specific elution from CDP-agarose with CDP. The Gal beta 1 to 3(4)GlcNAc alpha 2 to 3 sialyltransferase was also purified further by CDP elution from CDP-agarose, but final purification required affinity chromatography on an adsorbent prepared by coupling asialoprothrombin to cyanogen bromide-activated agarose. Asialoprothrombin contains the terminal sequence Gal beta 1 to 3GlcNAc on N-linked oligosaccharides and is the best acceptor substrate of the enzyme (Km congruent to 6 microM). The Gal beta 1 to 3(4)GlcNAc alpha 2 to 3 sialyltransferase was found to bind to asialoprothrombin-agarose in the presence of CDP and could be eluted with a solution containing 0.2 M lactose and no CDP. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-gel electrophoresis of the Gal beta 1 to 4GlcNAc alpha 2 to 6 and Gal beta 1 to 3(4)GlcNAc alpha 2 to 3 sialyltransferases revealed a single major protein band for each enzyme with apparent molecular weights of 40,500 and 44,000, respectively. Rabbit antibodies raised to the Gal beta 1 to 4GlcNAc alpha 2 to 6 sialyltransferase inhibit its enzymatic activity greater than 99% but caused little or no inhibition of Gal beta 1 to 3(4)GlcNAc alpha 2 to 3 sialytransferase. Moreover, the Gal beta 1 to 4GlcNAc alpha 2 to 6 sialyltransferase quantitatively bound to a column containing antibody adsorbed to Protein A-agarose, while the Gal beta 1 to 3(4) GlcNAc alpha 2 to 3 sialyltransferase did not bind. This demonstrated that the two sialyltransferases are antigenically unrelated and formed the basis for removal of contaminating Gal beta 1 to 4GlcNAc alpha 2 to 6 sialyltransferase from solutions of the Gal beta 1 to 3(4)GlcNAc alpha 2 to 3 sialyltransferase. Enzymatic characterization of the two sialyltransferases suggests that their major biological roles are in the terminal glycosylation of N-linked oligosaccharides of glycoproteins. (Weinstein, J., de Souza-e-Silva, U., and Paulson J. C. (1982) J. Biol. Chem. 257, 13845-13853. The alpha 2 to 6 sialyltransferase efficiently forms the NeuAc alpha 2 to 6Gal beta 1 to 4GlcNAc sequence, and the alpha 2 to 3 sialyltransferase forms the NeuAc alpha 2 to 3Gal beta 1 to 3GlcNAc and NeuAc alpha 2 to 3Ga; beta 1 to 4GlcNAc sequences. << Less

Biosynthesis in vitro of sialosylgalactosyldiacylglycerol by mouse brain microsomes.

A sialyltransferase enzyme, present in the microsomal fraction of mouse brain, catalyzes the synthesis in vitro of a lipid, characterized as 1,2-diacyl-3-beta-D-galactosyl (3 comes from 2 N-acetylneuraminosyl)-sn-glycerol, (sialosylgalactosyldiacylglycerol) from 1,2-diacyl-3-beta-D-galactosyl-sn-g ... >> More
A sialyltransferase enzyme, present in the microsomal fraction of mouse brain, catalyzes the synthesis in vitro of a lipid, characterized as 1,2-diacyl-3-beta-D-galactosyl (3 comes from 2 N-acetylneuraminosyl)-sn-glycerol, (sialosylgalactosyldiacylglycerol) from 1,2-diacyl-3-beta-D-galactosyl-sn-glycerol (galactosyldiacylglycerol) and cytidine-5'-monophospho-N-acetylneuraminic acid (CMP-NeuNAc). The enzymatic activity increases proportionally, over a given range, with increasing concentrations of both substrates and of enzyme. The apparent Km of the enzyme for galactosyldiacylglycerol is 130 microM, and for CMP-NeuNAc, 780 microM. The reaction proceeds optimally at pH 6.2. The product of the enzymatic reaction was characterized as a lipid which contained galactosyldiacylglycerol and N-acetylneuraminic acid. 14C-labeled lipid, synthesized from [14C]N-acetylneuraminic acid, and 3H-labeled lipid, synthesized from [3H]galactosyldiacylglycerol, ran with identical RF values when chromatographed on thin layers of silica gel. The water-soluble products, obtained by mild alkaline deacylation of these two labeled lipids, migrated the same when electrophoresed on paper. The ratio 14C/3H was calculated as 0.83 for doubly labeled lipid, [14C]sialosyl-[3H]galactosyldiacylglycerol. Degradation of this doubly labeled lipid by mild alkaline deacylation, followed by mild acid hydrolysis, yielded products that cochromatographed with standards galactosylglycerol and N-acetylneuraminic acid. Analysis of the products resulting from periodate oxidation of the 3H-labeled lipid demonstrated that the N-acetylneuraminic acid is linked to carbon 3 of the galactose. << Less
